solid Detroit style pizza! We got the Quinn pizza, which had a white sauce, but made it a Miranda, which added hot honey and bacon. It's an upcharge but I think it was worth it. We also got the Ang pizza, which was a vodka sauce. The crust was crispy on the edges and also fluffy in the middle. The service was pretty good, it didn't take long for our pizza and it was semi-busy. This is our second time coming here and we definitely had a better experience this time. The pizza is kind of expensive compared to how much you get so I don't think I would come here often. read more

Stopped here with my nephew for lunch. I didn't know prior to going but Just know it's Detroit style only, no other crust option, but they do it well. The pizza regular looks small, but it's thick and filling. A few slices and you're good. We did the pepperoni and the Good Paulie. Both were really flavorful but the Good Paulie was def my fav. We got the regular size and still had leftovers. We did a half order of the Zia fries, which were more than enough for two. The Caesar salad was good, just a little heavy on the dressing. As for service, our server Drummond was nice and took good care of us. However, the hostess tried to seat us right next to a large group, like arm's length close. I asked for a booth and was told no because it was "busy," even though there was no wait. We ended up sitting at the empty bar, and the booth stayed empty the entire time. Just didn't love the lack of consideration there. Oh and on Sundays they have buy one get one 50% off, so that was a plus. read more

Dropped by for late evening dinner on a Thursday. We had the Hawaiian pizza and the shaved Brussel salad. Not sure I liked the blue cheese flavor with the Brussels. Probably won't get that again. Pizza was outstanding. Cupped pepperoni, thick cut bacon, pineapple. Mmmm. Love the crust. Its a buttery and flaky thick crust. Very different, Detroit style. Service was great. Coke served in a can. Sit down and order style place. read more

I was looking for something quick and good! And I hit the jackpot!!!!!!! the atmosphere was really inviting, we sat inside but they also have outdoor seating! The decor was really simple and elegant! The waiter was really nice and very attentive! The salad and mozzarella sticks were fresh and delicious (I loved the big amount of marinara sauce we received) ! The deep dish was the star of the show - I'm super picky when it comes to pizza so I was really impressed by the sauce and cheese! The only thing I didn't like was no tomatoes or spinach to add as additional toppings! Other than that I will definitely be going back !!! (Pizza was pineapple, chicken, spicy beef, and green peppers) read more

A little bit of Nashville, a little bit of Detroit! Can't beat a Detroit-style pizza with Nashville hot chicken on top. The crust on this pizza is divine, full of crispy melted cheese.

Nice atmosphere, excellent waitstaff. Had the chopped wedge salad which came with Alabama White Sauce as the dressing. Excellent! For the entree, we had the equivalent of a meat lovers.

This was my first time visiting Emmy Squared as my coworker recommended we try them for lunch. When we got to the restaurant, we were immediately greeted and seated. We noticed it wasn't really busy, especially since there was only 1 waiter for the entire restaurant. But he did a great job with constantly making his rounds. After looking over the menus, we of course wanted to try their pizza. I ordered the Colony pizza. It came with honey but I declined it as I don't really care for "sweet" pizza. The Colony was your typical pizza. It was served hot and was delicious. I really enjoyed the buttery, thick crust and the pickled jalapeños. Will definitely come back and try another dish as they also serve salads and burgers/sandwiches. read more

I've been to a lot of pizza places in lots of cities and town but I don't remember ever having to make a reservation. Once I arrived at the Summit I realized why that was needed. The place is small but also very popular it seems. We were there at an off time I would have thought, but that said, the place was full. There were four of us and we got two Caesar Salads to split and Chicken Crunchers. That was a mistake, The two salads were huge and more than fthe four of us could finish and one would have been plenty. The Chicken Crunchers were very good as was the salad. We ordered two different different Detroit style pizzas and they both were very good. The only thing bad I can say about this place is that it is in the Summit with the usual traffic issues but this is a great place for pizza and we will be back. read more

Honestly, my review for this place is pretty mixed. I had the Le Bleu burger and fries, and the burger is a mix of different meats, but it really lacked in flavor. It was really greasy and the bun was also kind of burnt. If I was going solely off of the burger, I'd give this place a 2/5. My friend got the Emmy pizza, and it was so good. I loved the sauce on top, and the crust was very fluffy and flavorful, I really wish I had gotten that instead. The burger was $19 and to add fries was $7 which I found to be incredibly high for the food I got. I will say, overall the food seemed really overpriced for the quality of food you got. If I went back, I would definitely stick with a pizza, but I'm not sure I would try this place again. read more

Came here to catch up with a friend. He had suggested to come here and been wanting to try it. I had never heard of it, but I'm glad he suggested it! He got the vodka pizza (vodka sauce, basil, and pecorino) and said it was really good. I got the angel pizza, and it was delicious. It had truffle mushroom cream, ricotta cheese, and mushrooms. I think it is now my favorite pizza in Birmingham. We both ended up eating all of our respective pizzas - it was that good. I also did get the Not From the Stand drink (vodka, lime juice, cherry, and sprite) and it was great too. They have a lot of other options if you aren't feeling pizza that day. The burgers and sandwiches look good, as do several of the appetizers (wings and zia fries especially). So yeah... I'll definitely want to come back here again. read more

Emmy Squared serves up thick-crust pizza that doesn't shy away from cheese. Between my family of 4, we split the Miranda and Margherita pizzas (regular size). This allowed everyone to have 3 slices and it was the perfect amount. The Miranda is a 4-cheese pizza with bacon and hot honey on top. I would have liked it more if this pizza had a sauce, as it was very cheesy. The hot honey is a fun touch but there wasn't enough of it to make a difference. The bacon was a bit fatty, and I personally prefer it more well-done/crispy. The Margherita was pretty good and more well-balanced in terms of flavor. The inside is cute and clean and our server was great about checking in with our table. read more

This place might be a hidden gem at the summit. This was our second trip in and it was awesome. There was a great vibe this time and it showed throughout the place. The staff was helping each other and the timing was working. Mexican Coke was a great addition to the meal, nothing crisper. To me pouring Coke over ice with pizza is a top tier food experience. I don't know but the place just seemed warmer than last time. Also a shout out to our server "Tooty" she was great from the moment we sat down until we walked out. Managers checked on us and were engaging with others as well. If you have not tried this place and you like pizza the go it was fantastic and to be real it is probably one of the best values at the summit. If I could give my two cents on the menu... maybe a veggie option or two... but still 10/10 would recommend and will be back read more

We wanted to try something new so we stopped in for a pizza while in town. The service was AMAZING! Tooty took excellent care of us and was truly delightful. I highly recommend the cheese bread. So delish! read more

My husband and I lived in Detroit for 2.5 years, so we were excited to get a taste of home from Emmy Squared! It liked up the expectations. We went right after they opened, and there was plenty of seating. The cheesy breadsticks were delicious and we loved the marinara sauces. We got the VIP pizza and it was delicious -- crust was nice and crispy. It was a little greasy, but that's how they are up north so it didn't bother us. Highly recommend for a lunch stop! read more

David L and I stopped in for lunch on Monday. We ordered the Roni Supreme, and we thought the pizza was very good. I would give the pizza a solid 4 stars. It's square shape and crust were unique. The crust is a thick Focaccia flatbread with a crispy crust and soft and chewy middle. The Roni has red sauce, mozzarella, pepperonis, and Calabrian chili. It was tasty, and the chilies gave it a nice little kick. We ordered the Asian Pickled Mushrooms as an appetizer because it sounded interesting. The dish is a combination of marinated mushrooms, onions, and cucumbers. This dish was not good. The mushrooms were so salty that they were inedible. The onions had a very strong fish sauce flavor. The cucumbers were okay because they were the closest to pickled. I would not recommend this dish. We had a late lunch, around 2:30. The restaurant was pretty empty, and wait service was okay. I was disappointed because there were two six top tables next to us that were not cleaned. The tables were empty and dirty when we arrived, and no-one came to clean the whole time we were there. I would say the pizza is good enough to give them another shot. read more

Emmy Squared Pizza is in the perfect location. If you're craving pizza after a long day of shopping or just walking around the summit. Then you've found the right place! Delicious pizza and mocktails. My friends and I wondered into Emmy Squared Pizza at the summit after a long day of shopping and hanging out. The service was great and the pizza was as well. We started with the boneless wings and fries. Let me tell you! The fries were great! The wings were good as well. We then ordered our pizzas, we ordered a margarita pizza and the Nashville hot chicken pizza. Both were great. The margarita pizza is a classic, can't really go wrong there. The Nashville hot chicken pizza was also very tasty. We also ordered mocktails they were seasonal. Overall everything was tasty and good! The service was friendly and efficient. Definitely recommend. Don't forget to get the classic yet delish marg pizza! read more

The chicken parm sandwich wasn't very good. The sauce was off. No tang. There were two chicken thighs on it and the breading wasn't great. The pickle was gross. The pizza dough was over proofed and the toppings weren't edge to edge. The sauce wasn't good. It was missing something. The waitress was nice but very busy. The ambiance was very uncomfortable. We were seated between to large groups and it was hard to talk. Won't be going back. read more

We had the opportunity to try Emmy tonight and it definitely had some great things going for it. Its where Abhi was at the summit. They've made a great use of the space and the decor is really nice. I highly recommend getting a rez- especially if you're a party of four or more. We had 12 people and they graciously had our table ready right at our time. Everyone had a cocktail and I loved mine- Under the moonlight. All the apps are shareable. We tried the mozzarella sticks, garlic cheese bread and Brussel sprout salad. The cheese bread was our favorite although all were great. The salads are HUGE and could easily be a meal. Hubs and I got the Angel pizza and it was incredible. Enough for two people. The crust was crispy and all the toppings blended well together. My friend had the Ang and she ended up with two. The kitchen wasn't satisfied with the first one (too much sauce) and made her another one which we thought was very thoughtful. Overall we enjoyed our first time here. Gluten free options are a plus. The waitress was attentive and handled our large party well. read more

Date night at Emmy Squared Pizza last night, and my experience was no short of awesome! From the ambience and bar, to its cool people, Emmy does it right. One lady who wasn't even waiting my table asked if I was enjoying, and offered the most radiant smile! I love to be welcomed that way. The food was fresh and piping hot! I think I may have had a Miranda. I appreciated perfection of their deep dish and crispy crust. I think we are going to make it a regular! Its just the pizza place to take a date, and she will definitely be impressed! I was! read more

Got the lunch special which was a good deal! Two large pizza slices and a salad. For the price the pizza was decent. But I do wish there was more sauce. Seemed like it was tossed on the top as an afterthought. My sister and I ordered the fries to share but they never came. We sat there for 2 hours and I noticed it was just one guy who was waiting, bartering and hosting. He did great considering he was the only one. I'm not convinced I'd go again but their other items looked good read more

I want to update that my girlfriends and I returned with a group of 6. Our reservation was useful as we were seated immediately. We ordered a bunch of things to share and we all tried different cocktails. Our drinks were great and a lot of fun. The bartender was a little overwhelmed but then again mixing 6 different cocktails takes a few minutes, so no points deducted for that. We ordered 2 of the Brussels sprouts salads, one with chicken, the marinated cucumbers (which we enjoyed so much we added in a second order of them), 2 pizzas, and an order of fries. The pizzas we chose were colony and a special that I believe had ricotta on it. We devoured and savored all of the dishes we ordered. No disappointments whatsoever! When it was all said and done we had a great feast with cocktails for a very reasonable price, in a picturesque environment with great service. Our waiter really took care to keep all of our orders straight. I have since made a to go order for the Brussels sprout salad with chicken that my friends and I still dream about. We plan to go back soon for another girls night! I understand some places are inconsistent, but I have seen none of that myself and can't wait to return. read more

We stopped here just because the reviews said they had gluten free. We ordered the pizza and the Brussel sprout salad. The salad was mediocre. Didn't seem really fresh though. The pizza was good. I'm fairly new to gluten great eating and I could t tell the crust was gluten free. It was good. Pizzas with 6 slices are around $14-$19. We had to wait quite a while for the gluten free crust and got a discount for having to wait so long. Service was excellent. Not a place for large parties. read more

Pizzas are small and in between being not enough for 2 but too much for 1. My family split the garlic cheese sticks, Italian, salad, and original pizza. All that plus a couple drinks was over $50 which felt steep considering it wasn't a lot of food. I did really love their tomato sauce to dip the cheese sticks in and on the pizza. Inside is nice and modern with a nice bar and drink selection. We'll be back but would probably get a different pizza. read more

Emmy Squared Pizza is definitely an interesting name. I read on their website that it's because of their signature "square" shaped pizza. So now it made sense. They originally started up north in Brooklyn and bring to the south their Detroit-style pizza in a square share and signature sauces. Their website also reveals that their Le Big Matt burger was named best burger in Nashville. Located on the "other side" of the Summit, ESP has only been opened about 4 months. It's almost right next to Urban Cookhouse. After you pass thru their large mammoth glass doors, you are greeted to a posh modern contemporary style decor with bold dark colors and dim lighting. It is definitely a place I would go for a casual romantic meal. Their dining room is adequate with comfortable and beautiful accommodations with a nice full service bar. Paul C and I arrived for a late lunch to a rather empty restaurant so we were seated quickly. Our server arrived quickly. I thought about the mozz sticks, but we both agreed the Asian pickled mushrooms sounded interesting. It didn't take long since they were slow and dug right in. Unfortunately, the appetizer looked better than it tasted. The most appetizing portion were the fresh cucumbers. The pickled onions were ok but he marinated mushrooms were unedible. My hypertension appreciates a good salty meal, but those mushrooms were over the top. So the menu description of it being salted is spot on. The asian element of including some fish sauce was interesting but was also overwhelming. Their burger choices especially the Le Big Matt looked so inviting, but it was our first time here so we figured we better try one of their signature pizzas since it was a pizza place after all. When our Roni Supreme arrived, it was placed atop a special pizza holder which kept the rectangular shaped pizza cut into 8 small squares elevated about 12 inches above our table. It was warm and smelled delicious. This red sauce pizza was topped with a calabrian chili which I had never heard of, but it was definitely a chili with a distinctive kick. If you love to have your pizzas with jalapenos, you should definitely give this pizza a taste. The proportion of mozzarella cheese and miniature pepperonis were spot on. Crunchy on the outside with a soft and inviting in the middle, the square crust was spot on. It was burnt/charred in just the right places. That one pizza was just enough for two adults so if you have a larger party, consider getting two. I liked how they leave you a tall clear glass bottle of cool water to pour yourself. Our server Kat was attentive, but they must have been short on help that day because our 2 adjacent tables sat uncleared the entire time. If it wasn't for the mushrooms, this visit would've earned a 4 star. They are a pizza elevated with burgers, sandwiches and even a wings appetizer. I look forward to sampling their award winning Le Big Matt burger another time. read more

I was VERY hesitant to come here after reading so many mixed reviews about the speed and quality of service and even attitudes. But I finally decided to give it a try and have not been disappointed. My first visit was for dinner by myself. The well-decorated dining room was nearly full, so I figured this would be a good test of their speed and response time...and honestly I was geared up to leave if it went poorly. Overall, I was pleased with the timing of service throughout the visit. And the food was worth the experience. I had the dinner Caesar salad, which is quite large, and has great toppings - crumbled croutons and crumbled cheese similar to Parmesan but slightly different taste. For pizza, I had the Big Hawaiian - pepperoni, bacon, pineapple and chile glaze. The Detroit style pizza is a thick rectangle crust with a good balance of toppings and crispy crust. Very tasty and mildly spicy! Pricy but good! I came back for lunch the next week with a co-worker. This is the steal value-wise at Emmy Squared, by the way! We sat at an outside table surrounded by flowers and plants that hid the nearby parking lot and shopping center environment. There were less guests on this visit, but service and food prep time were both timely. We both had the smaller lunch salad ($5) and pizza (also $5). Again, the food was excellent and service was solid. I acknowledge that others have had bad experiences here but my experiences so far have been solid, so I'll be back. read more

I was here to celebrate a birthday with girlfriends. It was an issue to get separate checks for 9 even thought at 7:30 we were literally the only patrons in the restaurant. Terribly overpriced. A side of fries-$7. The chicken parm was blah. Maybe pizza was better?? After the server (who was great besides the initial stance on separate checks) caved on the checks, our service was great. Food not so much. Drinks were great, but frankly should be for $15. I won't be back. read more
